[Wtb Anubias]

Yup that what is is, it's a 10w led bulb which I recently ripped out of a lamp which is attached to the lid 

[Wtb Anubias]

Alanmin I have 3 short stems of Rotala rotundifolia which I really like but can't get to grow in fact the bottom of the stem is turning brown but I have recently added an extra 10w of led to the excisting 15w of t8 on a 54 liter tank so I'm gonna hope it'll come back I also have couple of decent size stems in the emersed grow out which I'll also chuck in and see if it'll grow.

anyway do u have any pearl weed or dwarf baby tears available?

[WTB White LEDs/ 60cm unit]

Hi

[Center piece fish for a community tank?]

Yea a betta probbly isn't the best choice 

how about a German ram? or do you know any other nice looking/ center piece fish That can be housed in the tank?

[Center piece fish for a community tank?]

Hi all 

I was wondering if I could keep a betta in my 60Liter planted tank which has

x3 serpae tetras which are peaceful and don't fin nip other fishes or themselves 

x4 neon tetras which sometimes fight themselves 

x2 Cory cats 

the flow is also 5 times the tank volume so 300Lph 

im asking u guys this because I've herd my current fish are fin nippers and that bettas don't like flow? 

 

[WTB Paratya curvirostris- Freshwater shrimp]

Oh

I didn't know that 

[WTB Paratya curvirostris- Freshwater shrimp]

Hi I'm looking to buy a couple of 

Paratya curvirostris- Freshwater shrimp

I live in Hamilton 

[Where the money's at in our hobby]

I think one of my serpae tetras are pregnant if she is I'll start breeding those I might also try a nice sword tail if I can find one...

Btw (non fish related)  recently I invested in a greenhouse I'm going to grow speciality crops and sell them on trade me, I'm sure I can make some money with that. I'll find a easily propagated plant ie hedge plant, grow them out and sell them for cheaper than other people like $2 each and I can fit like 1000 plants in there.

anyway thanks for all the attention and answering my question it  really helps 

[Where the money's at in our hobby]

Well i asked my fish store what they sold the most of in the nicest way and told him I don't want to sell him anything but replied  with "sorry I have my own suppliers" well now it's super awkward and I'm gonna have to buy my fish stuff from animates but Alg animates sell cheaper anyway. But I'll still give a shot at breeding a type of fish and continue with my hydroponic style grow bed. Since you guys have even worked at fish stores before could you guys tell me what fish sells. I will sell my stuff one trade me.

btw I don't want offset fish keeping costs just wanna try make a bit cash to put into the hobby

[Where the money's at in our hobby]

I decided 

I'm gonna do hard to get plants emerged and maybe breed a liveberrear depending on what selling in my area 

Could you post  a few plants that I can try to get a hold of? I know red tiger lotus is one ...

Thanks 

 

[Where the money's at in our hobby]

Yea 

For the initial price putting in what do u think might be more profitable fragging and selling zoanthids and other similer corals, emersed  plant grow out and propagation or breeding fish

because I want to expand on to other areas of out hobby whilst trying to break even or earn some money 

I am willing to commit 100% 

also I found a lots of thick tempered shelving glass in my garage I think I can make use of this...

thanks

IRA 

i just wanna make some extra cash to spend on aquariums  I don't want it to be a job or anything 

I can definetly see how you can take the fun out of the hobby by trying to make a living.

i want to expand on to other areas of the hobby 

[Say NO to goldfish bowls.]

I agree 

I find it so sad seeing people keeping fish in those tiny bowls 

[Where the money's at in our hobby]

Yea 

i just got done planting about 20 Java ferns and 15 crypt parvas in the window sill setup I'll try and sell the JavaS once their around 10cm tall right,now their 2-4cm and the parvas after they send out runners. once plants are ready I'll ask the two fish stores and animates in Hamilton 

I'm probbly not gonna start breeding untill later.

[Where the money's at in our hobby]

Although I really like the idea of starting a frag tank buts it too expensive so I'll sell plants on trade me to at least pay for new plants and buy more plants and eventually set up a couple of bred butter breeding tanks so to start I'll put some of my crypt parva, Java fern  and crested Java fern in my window sill emersed set up...and later expand to Anubis if all goes well.

what price should I put the the plants mentioned for? and do u think they will sell?
